No Verdict In the Laughlin Caso-Ths Jury
Out all Night.

No Verdict in the Lsughlin Case-rhs Jury
out all Night
Judge Burlingame delivered his charge to
the jury in the Laughlin case yesterday
morning at the opening of court. He re-
viewed the law ,ppertaining to the case
and cautioned the Jury that facts from
creditable witnesses were always superior
to theory. A strong recommendation for
Mrs. Laughlin, IS the case of the de-
ienaant IS supported principally by the
answers of physicians 10 hypothetical
questions. The jury retired epout 1915
and upto ii o'clock last night did not re-
port an agreement. During the afternoon
the offices about the court room were
crowded with attorneys and Others anxious
to hear the first news of the verdict. The
general expectation during the afternoon
was that Ers. Laughlin would receive A
verdict % not lets than 5000. As the
hours rolled on the speculation as 10 the
result among those interested, changed To
the opinion that the jury would disagree.
Judge Burlingame and Clerk Rathbun
remsined about their offices until IL O'Clock
last night when the Judge announced that
he was going home
Deputy Sheriff Cook raped on the door
OF the court room where the Jury were
wrsngiing. and, IL is supposed. inquired Of
the jury Iaan who responed If tnev had
agreed
The deputy whispered word or two TO
the Judge, ond then the latter started for
home.
This indicated that the Jury had not
agreed and were doomed to spend the night
IN the court room. The court will convene
at 10 O'Clock this morning.
